Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of deep brain stimulation in treatment resistant depression The main questions it aims to answer are

Is deep brain stimulation effective in treating treatment resistant depression
Does deep brain stimulation improve overall clinical well-being and functioning

Participants will be implanted with a deep brain stimulation device They will then be monitored over a 5-year period by using multiple questionnaires to track their depression symptoms The device will be turned off at certain time points unbeknown to the participant to show the efficacy of the device when it is turned on The device will be ON for 85 months and OFF for 35 months during the first year

Researchers will compare questionnaire scores when the device is off versus on to see if the device is working in reducing depression
Detailed Description: This initial study at Northwell Health has the purpose to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of performing slMFB DBS as a treatment for TRD at Northwell Health as well as more clearly establish efficacy The investigators hypothesize that DBS targeting can be consistently placed in the supero-lateral branch of the medial forebrain bundle slMFB after identification using diffusion tensor imaging and fiber tract analysis as performed in DBS at UTHealth The investigators will implant the Medtronic SenSight Directional DBS lead at this target location
